One of the best things for battery saving is to remove ANY IMAP mail client, even with IDLE they all seem to rape your battery. Biggest saving I had on unrooted/stock was to remove the email app (tried loads, k9, outlook, cloudmagic etc) and battery life went up significantly. I obviously have...

Cool. Reading xda, people seem to be seeing 6-7 hours plus screen time as well.

@Addicted OK, so I bit....I installed AK! What tweaks have you made to it? Any pointers on what settings I should be changing?

Can't say I've noticed that one myself...if you take a photo and exit the app before the photo has "bounced" on the right hand side of the screen then weird things happen, but if you take a photo and let that happen (less than a half a second) and then slip to photos then the pictures are there...

There's also a open sale on monday, so might be worth having a look at that. It'll probably be like shooting fish in a barrel. If you go for it, make sure you've already got an account set up on the one plus site and that all the details are filled in and that you're logged into the website...

Hold on a few more weeks if you can mate, I've overdue some more sharables as is the wife. I'll send you one over the moment I get one.

lol. Nah, car park is right next door to cex, I shall get the wife to chauffeur me there! I'll be back before you can say "smoke me a kipper".

Yes. But there's a tiny chip (I mean miniscule, unless you knew it was there you'd never know) on the left edge of the screen (not actually over the lcd or something) where I dropped it on the edge of my laptop, which is why I don't want to deal with idiots on eBay, I can see the disputes...

Absolutely, it's spot on, only thing (I keep mentioning it on here) is the broken LED stuff in OxygenOS, other than that I haven't got any complaints. Mrs loves hers as well, we're selling her Note3 to Mazuma, I wiped it yesterday and f**k me, that is some awful s**t, even with the lollipop...

Yep, you'll need root. My only outstanding issue now is really the broken LED behaviour in Oxygen OS. I've worked around my other issues (Blacklist, created blacklist contact and just send calls to voicemail for that contact), night mode I sorted with tasker.

@Tyler@Ultimate it's Amplify, very useful for seeing what is causing wakelocks and/or excessive battery use. (something might have a lot of wakelocks, but consume little on time....something else might only have a few wakelocks but consume lots of time during each one).

Eh?

Right, by far the biggest battery killer out of anything is IMAP. I still use my iCloud email as my primary email, and no matter what email client I use on the phone, it introduces a huge drain (even if setting the poll frequency low or using IMAP idle). I finally got around to playing with...

You didn't lose 10%, the curve is just wrong. If you follow the imaginary curve from where it goes wonky to where it starts again it follows the same curve as the rest of the graph. Something just happened to the data recording and it got back in sync a few hours later.

Looks like it just stopped recording data properly, the curve that isn't there looks right from where it stopped and then restarted collecting.

The video rtcempire posted a page or so back.

You wern't joking, got greenify running but amplify showed me what was killing the battery, tweaked that out and bingo. I don't really do anything "tasking" on the phone anyway, browsing, calls, texts, facebook etc. My brightness is normally set pretty low as well. Gonna root the wifes phone...

Fooking hell. This is 15 hours on battery.

I need to install a backup system, I'm guessing you guys recommend (seeing as it's what you've mentioned) TitaniumBackup? Just the free one or the pay one? I love the way they've made no effort to port the UI, looks like a craptastic Android 1.0 app. lol

@Addicted Pretty much same results with battery life as you by just rooting and installing greenify and amplify. Only problem now is that because the phone is so good when the screen is off, it makes it look super bad when you actually use it! lol

My normal download rate is anything around 15 megabytes a second, sometimes up to 16/17. I got the 300Mbit email a month or so back!

Yeah, but you have a +1 already, so that immediately makes you a higher priority for an invite. Anybody who doesn't have a plus one and is waiting for an invite from the reservation list is going to be waiting a long time, hence getting on the forum and getting a shareable!

Seriously guys, don't bother with the "reservation invite" list. Sign up to the oneplus forums and get posting in the UK threads, sign up to the invitation threads in those threads there and keep posting. (Keep posting is the important bit!!!)

Got a screenshot of what I should be enabling? I'm bound to press a button I shouldn't. Spot the software engineer! lol

Cool, installed, took a while to get it working - kept moaning that xposed wasn't running even though it was.

How did you get amplify to work, says I need xposed and when i go to xposed it says that it's not compatible with my architecture and may cause the device to stop functioning! Guess I need a different installer/build for it.

Rooted. Lightflow still doesn't work in root properly though! lol

Not a lot on it, I'm not an appointment hoarder and all my photos are backed up with Google!

Cool, will have a go now and see how I get on!
